Capacitive proximity/level sensor


Senyd capacitive proximity sensor is a type of sensor that detects the presence or proximity of an object without physical contact. It works by generating an electric field and measuring changes in capacitance when an object enters the field. When an object comes close to the sensor, the capacitance changes, triggering the sensor to detect the object's presence.Capacitive proximity sensors are commonly used in various applications, such as object detection, liquid level sensing, and touchless interfaces. They are preferred for their non-contact operation, high sensitivity, and ability to detect a wide range of materials, including non-metallic objects. These sensors are used in industries such as automotive, food and beverage, and manufacturing for automation and control purposes.

Magnetostrictive Linear Position Sensor In Profile housing
  • High resolution of up to 0.5 µm

  • Measuring lengths of up to 7620 mm

  • Measures several positions and speeds at the same time

  • Non-contacting, thus free from wear – no downtimes and a long service life

  • Easy integration with equipment through a variety of interfaces – such as Analog, Profinet, EtherCAT, SSI, Profibus-dp and Canopen output signals – in order to invert, configure, and document the measurement range
